It will be the beginning of the end for entry level jobs and quite possibly the lower middle class.

Is this a ploy by the FEL?

+Anonymous B — 10 years ago, 22 minutes later[T] [B] #493,543

do you really think mcdonalds workers are "lower middle class"?

I think that depends on location of said McDougal's.

@previous (Maddy is !grate/DTHM)

you're gonna have to tell me where mcdonalds burger flippers and cashiers are making lower middle class wages (~30-50k).

Idk, most offer 12-15 per hour. There's probably one somewhere, or at least an employee who gets very few hours for whatever reason.

I thought burger flippers make minimum wage? Almost all states don't have more than $9/hr minimum wage

·Anonymous B — 10 years ago, 28 minutes later, 3 hours after the original post[T] [B] #493,554

@493,546 (Maddy is !grate/DTHM)

Yeah, you're talking out of your ass. Most places do not offer 12-15/hr, and most make minimum wage (of which the federal standard is $7.25), which is not even close to 30k. btw, most McDonald's don't offer full 40 hour work weeks. So I have no clue what you're talking about.

Same here. Never heard of a fast food "cook" making more than minimum wage.

Not being mean. But have you Maddie and have you Catherine, ever worked?

@493,546 (Maddy is !grate/DTHM)
Wages vary by area. If they pay what seems to be a decent wage, check cost of living, it will be higher too.

Well you make 15 bux working in McDonald's in new York

·Anonymous B — 10 years ago, 3 hours later, 13 hours after the original post[T] [B] #493,584

@previous (Ducky !MwWb.dJjRc)

that's still poor as fuck. you realize new york is the most expensive city to live within the US besides SF maybe? 15 dollars/hr wouldn't even cut it for poor in some parts of nyc.

If minimal wage goes up to $15 a hour, doesn't that mean the cost of everything else would also go up?

·Maddy is !grate/DTHM — 10 years ago, 5 hours later, 22 hours after the original post[T] [B] #493,607

@493,574 (kook !!NBBLPn+WZ)

+Anonymous I — 10 years ago, 15 minutes later, 1 day after the original post[T] [B] #493,614

McDonald's isn't the first self checkout thing, Ikea has it and a lot of supermarkets as well.

·Anonymous I — 10 years ago, 1 minute later, 1 day after the original post[T] [B] #493,615

you're asking a complicated economics question on tinychan. do some reading on basic macroeconomics and then tackle the current research out there to get a greater understanding of the subject.

Technological unemployment is a huge collaboration between FEL and SkyCat/Robot. It's not exactly a 'ploy', we're just helping humanity along towards its inevitable conclusion.

The alternative was Robot was going to launch ICBMs at all superpowers, but The Council decided the end result, while expedient, had too much of a chance of damaging the New Eden in the long run.
